Actually it was at Herculaneum the smaller and much less famous but far better preserved town. Oh and it isn't a recent discovery. They found that one back 40 years ago but just recently changed their mind on who he was.
They still have acres and acres of in touched ground to dig up at both locations even though they have been excavating the place for almost 200 years now.
Love the links to the one you gave. I had not heard about the chariot they found.
